Meet Anahi

  • Speaks English and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

¡Hola! I’m Anahi Nakoa, originally from Mexico City and now residing in San Francisco for the past 8 years. Fluent in both Spanish and English. My bachelor's degree in industrial design background complements my keen observation skills, creativity, and ambition to find innovative solutions for the challenges little ones face daily. My journey has been dedicated to working full time with children for the past 8 years, since I started working with kids I gain a new perspective of the world and I get excited about little things in life, their curiosity to learn is magical! I’m passionate about their learning processes, emotional development, and supporting their growth through fun and educational activities, outdoor adventures, crafts, and music. My child care experience began as an Au Pair in San Francisco, caring for two delightful siblings aged 5 and 7. After completing the program, I transitioned to working with a 6-month-old Read more baby boy, guiding him through his early years. Later, I spent years with a remarkable 2-year-old girl who faced many challenges, including neurodivergent learning style and severe food allergies. Witnessing her progress and helping her overcome fears was incredibly rewarding. As she entered preschool, I embraced the challenge of balancing her needs and those of her energetic classmate through a nanny share arrangement for 1.5 years. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I look forward to connecting with you soon!

Anahi is a kind, calm and patient caregiver. Her vast experience and early childhood knowledge made her perfect fit for my 18 mo with some major separation anxiety. She played games straight away and slowly encouraged him to trust her. By the end of their time together he cried as she was leaving because he wanted her to stay. We will definitely hire her again and I would highly recommend hiring Anahi.

Anahi is fantastic! What a godsend! Anahi helped me manage my two babies for four evenings while my husband is away on a business trip. My 3yr old toddler who had never had a sitter before warmed up to her almost immediately and has been asking for her daily. I also love how proactive and excellent Anahi is with chores all while teaching my toddler manners in a fun way such as setting the table, cleaning up toys, stop to listen to mommy (btw none of which he ever did!). My 10M old loves her too and has no stranger anxiety around her. I’m so impressed by how easily she can handle both kids, adapt to needs of household, while finding ways to do more and more as she got familiar with our routines, all while being her calm, cheery self. With her around, I have peace of mind and will prioritize her for future babysitting.

Anahi is a true gem! She recently took care of our two children—a toddler and an elementary-aged child—during our date night. She was incredibly warm, gentle, and engaging, quickly winning over both kids. In fact, one of them asked the next day when she would be coming back. It was clear that Anahi genuinely enjoyed spending time with and getting to know each child on a personal level. Her punctuality and great communication were also appreciated. We'll definitely be asking her to babysit again. Thank you, Anahi!
